Subject: Re-order playlists.
While we're on the subject, if My Playlists -> Create and My Playlists-> Edit make it back into the Vibez, I would absolutely love to also see a My Playlists -> Edit -> Reorder. 

On Karma, there is no way to rearrange the track order of a saved playlist without actually loading it as a running playlist and re-saving it.  I'd like to have this option.

Not a really big deal to me, but a nice to have.

Thx.

Right, that's part of what was wrong with the Karma system. There were different tools available in the running-order editor and in the playlist editor, which was an oddity as they're both just ways of making lists of songs. Putting the playlist-editing tools in the running-order editor, brings them all together in one place.

Having said that, we have come up here with some sensible user-stories for adding to a different playlist. Maybe the right thing to do is, in the Now Playing menu, have, effectively, the two playlist-related entries from Rio Music Manager's right-click menu: Add To (followed by a menu of playlists), and Add To [name of last playlist added-to].

Peter,

From a user's perspective, I'm perfectly happy with having the two separate playlist editors where they are.  I honestly can't think of a single menu option on the Karma that I would want to see removed.

I'd be happy to see this on the Vibez:

- Preserve/restore the following menu options from the Karma:
  - "My Playlists -> Create"
  - "My Playlists -> Edit"
  - "My Playlists -> Edit -> Add Tracks"
  - "My Playlists -> Edit -> Remove Tracks"
- Add "My Playlists -> Edit -> Reorder Tracks"
- On top of that, the idea of being able to add tracks from Now Playing to a saved playlist would be beautiful.

Just curious, what are the odds of this making it "back" into the Vibez firmware? :-)
